• Ep. 45 - BHNFL Part IV w/W. Scott Greene
    Jan 27 2026

    In Part IV and the finale of the Better Has No Finish Line podcast series, Joe Bogdan sits down with his friend and fellow former Llama Lounge host, Scott Greene, for a candid conversation about the heart behind the book and what comes next.

    Together, they unpack the intentionality that shaped Better Has No Finish Line from the very beginning. Why this book exists. What problem it is meant to serve. And why growth, leadership, and self mastery are not destinations but lifelong pursuits.

    Joe shares reflections from the writing journey, the lessons that surfaced along the way, and how the book is designed to be used, not just read. That includes the companion workbook and the courses that bring the concepts to life through reflection, application, and discussion.

    The conversation also looks ahead at what is next for the BHNFL ecosystem, including the continued development of the workbook, upcoming courses, and how these elements work together to support sustained growth long after the final page.
